Jun-12-12  LoveThatJoker: Tremendous strategic and, taken in its entirety, powerful game from IM Donald Byrne!

<14. b4!> Just an excellent move - if 14...cxb4 15. Nb5 with play against d6.

<15. a5> Yet another excellent move with the same idea as above: if 15...cxb4, then 16. Nb5 Qxa5?! 17. Nxd6 with advantage for White.
